DARK CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
To be clear: this is a recipe designed to eat one portion of cake in lieu of making a whole one. I DO NOT know why this is listed as kid friendly and that should NOT be construed as 'my kid can make this with no supervision'. In my UI it says it is in the category "Dietary > Kid-Friendly" so maybe that is why. As in they will eat it because it is cake and they are kids. Kids tend to like cake and not complain about what is in it. BUT don't make your kid make his own cake, mug or otherwise. At least help him with it. LOL

Steps:
- Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler. Set aside to cool for a minute or two. EDIT: OR MELT IN THE MUG. Keep an eye on it though and try not to cry if/when it seizes.
- Add flour, cinnamon, and sugar to a small mixing bowl; mix well.
- Add in the egg and mix again.
- Add in the milk and mix yet again.
- Add in the chocolate-butter mixture and mix once more.
- Pour into a large coffee mug and microwave on medium power for two minutes, then high power for about a minute. Cake is done when a skewer test comes out with moist crumbs.
- Allow to cool (while you're cleaning up is sufficient) and dig in! Add a scoop of your favorite ice cream on top for a delicious change of pace.
Tips:
- Use high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% for the best flavor.
- If you don't have a microwave, you can bake the mug cake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- For a fudgier cake, use less milk and more chocolate. For a lighter cake, use more milk and less chocolate.
- Add a tablespoon of peanut butter, Nutella, or chopped nuts to the batter for extra flavor.
- Top the cake with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries for a decadent dessert.
